The emergence of the Kunlun Secret Realm excited various orthodoxies and attracted all Heavenly Champions.
A blood rain and a repulsing stench were about to occur.
Somewhere in the Immortal World, where clouds filled the sky, bursts of graceful guqin music reverberated and mesmerized everyone.
A graceful white-clothed woman was playing a guqin in the clouds. As she plucked her slender fingers on the guqin, guqin music rang out.
Suddenly, a gust of wind billowed.
A woman dressed in a glamorous robe and gleaming with Immortal Sparks approached.
Along with her arrival, the surrounding clouds dissipated.
The charming and graceful woman in the clouds appeared. She had delicate facial features and fair skin coupled with an extraordinary temperament.
Her green hair was at waist’s length, and she was wearing a long white dress, sitting crossed-legged by the lake. There was a seven-stringed guqin lying in front of her.
The woman in white gradually got up. With her curvy figure and slender legs, she bowed to the person approaching her. “Greetings, Honorable Teacher.”
“Well, Yu Zhi, Kunlun Secret Realm has emerged.”
“Yes. I know.”
“Kunlun is the birthplace of Jade Pool Sacred Land. It is the residence of the West Ruler Matriarch, whom we worship. Perhaps you may find some Opportunities of Fortune related to the West Ruler Matriarch if you go there,” said the aristocratic-looking woman, who was the Holy Jade Pool Sect Ruler, Qing Yao.
She looked at Yu Zhi with admiration in her eyes. “You’re the youngest Maiden Sage in the Jade Pool and the host of the most outstanding Holy Jade Pool Physique in history. You’re almost as talented as the rumored West Ruler Matriarch.”
“If you can find some inheritance about her, you’ll be able to come out on top in the Battle of Heavenly Champions.”
“The Eastern King School’s Heavenly Champion, Zhuo Donglai, will go to Kunlun with you. You both should take good care of each other.”
Upon hearing that, Yizhi furrowed her brows. “Zhuo Donglai… I don’t like him. Honorable Teacher, can I go alone?”
“The situation in the Immortal World is far less stable than it looks. Since the Eastern King School is related to the Holy Jade Pool Sec, we should support each other and maintain a good relationship rather than be enemies. Of course, if you really don’t like it, I can turn it down for you.”
Qing Yao loved Yu Zhi very much and did not want the latter to be upset doing something she did not want to.
“No worries. It’s fine with me.” Yu Zhi pondered for a while before she said.
She did not want to put her Honorable Teacher in a difficult position. After all, they were merely traveling together, so she could bear with it.
“Alright.”
…
The Great Ten Thousand Mountains were the yokai cultivators’ land.
Most wild and divine beasts in the Immortal World lived here, while human cultivators rarely came here.
In the Nine-Headed Snakelet Tribe, a young man in red appeared above the sky, and yokai qi filled the air.
He was the most powerful Nine-Headed Snakelet Heavenly Champion, Jiu Fang!
“Jiu Fang, you must pay close attention to a man named Chu Kuangren during your journey to the Kunlun Secret Realm. He was the one that killed Jiu Yuan.” A dull voice sounded.
“Understood. I will avenge Jiu Yuan.”
A cold glint flashed in Jiu Fang’s eyes.
“No.”
“I’m not asking you to take revenge. He’s very powerful, and none of the great ones in the Immortal World know the extent of his strength. If you bump into him, remember not to go against him head-on.” The dull voice continued on.
Jiu Fang was stunned to hear that. “Leader, you’re afraid of him. It seems he’s not someone to be underestimated. Now, this has piqued my interest in him.”
“Remember my words.”
“Rest assured, Tribe Leader. I know what I’m doing.”
“Well, besides you, Manticore, Sabertooth, Nine-tailed Fox, Lightning Beast, Kui Bull, and other tribes will also make their way to Kunlun. Perhaps all of you can support each other if you bump into them.”
“I hope they won’t hold me back.”
Jiu Fang did not take it seriously. After he finished speaking, his figure flashed and turned into a stream of light, flying toward the direction of Kunlun Secret Realm.
…
In the Immortal World, there was a palace hidden in the darkness.
On that day, the palace was brightly lit.
A few figures formed out of black mists emerged.
They were Ten Demonic Dao Tribes’ successors.
“What do you guys think about Kunlun?”
“We must not miss Kunlun’s Opportunities of Fortune. However, we must not slack on the progress of the Luo Hou Ancestral Land.”
“So what the elders mean is that we can decide for ourselves. I plan to send two people to explore Kunlun. Who would like to go?”
A warm voice sounded.
Those figures exchanged looks with each other.
“I heard that the Hundred Academy’s Chief has shown up in the Immortal World recently, and he’s powerful. I would like to go and meet him,” a huge shadow said arrogantly.
“Oh. Chi Zhan, that’s a good idea. Since your combat strength is ranked in the top three among us, it’s appropriate for you to go.”
“Top three? One day, I’ll be at the top,” said Chi Zhan coldly.
The warm voice ignored him and continued. “Also, I heard from the Soul Vanquisher that the Baimei Tribe’s successor is in Hundred Academy. If you can, bring her back.”
“Oh? The nearly extinct Baimei Tribe still has a successor, huh? That’s interesting. I heard the people of the Baimei Tribe are top-notched cauldrons. Ha! I’d like to give it a try.”
Chi Zhan revealed a smile that every man understood.
…
In the Holy Judgement Sect, a figure rose into the sky.
A terrifying aura surged and turned into a huge, headless apparition in the void. Battle intent swept across the land.
“I’ve finally broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm!”
“This time, I’ll surely shine in Kunlun!”
The young man stood in the sky with a confident look.
“Xing Feng, there will be a huge gathering in Kunlun, and countless sky-prides will be there. You have to be careful.”
“Rest assured, Sect Leader.”
…
On a mountain peak in Hundred Academy, a bright light shot into the sky and transformed into countless golden runes. Upon closer look, they were the academy’s rules and regulations.
“Do not impose on others what you do not desire.”
“Do not fail to do good no matter how petty the deed, and do not engage in evil no matter how trivial the dead.”
“Repay virtue with virtue, and repay grievance with justice.”
For a time, a solemn recitation seemed to echo in the realm.
At that, the Hundred Academy’s students could not help but be amazed.
“This is the Golden Rule Order, one of the academy’s three conjurations!”
“That direction… It’s the White Deer Academy. It looks like Cao Yun, the White Deer Academy’s Heavenly Champion, has come out from closed-door meditation. What a powerful aura.”
“Has he broken through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm?”
“What a mighty aura.”
A handsome young man in white walked out of White Deer Academy.
He had a slender figure and a firm look on his face. There seemed to be countless mysterious runes flowing in both his eyes, making him look extremely mysterious.
He was the White Deer Academy’s Heavenly Champion, Cao Yun.
Knowing that Cao Yun had come out of closed-door meditation, the White Deer Academy’s Dean came to greet him in person.
Then, Cao Yun asked about the current situation in the academy.
“There is a chief in the academy?”
Cao Yun frowned after learning of the news. He thought he would be able to become the academy’s chief after breaking through into the Heavenly Immortal Realm.
Little did he expect someone else to beat him to it, and it made him dumbfounded.
“Is Chu Kuangren that amazing?” asked Cao Yun.
The White Deer Academy’s Dean pondered for a while and then nodded.
“I’ve never seen anyone who has intelligence and talent like him in my life, and no one is as good as him. Otherwise, Mister Lu wouldn’t have appointed him as the academy’s Chief.”
“Your words make me curious, Dean.”
Cao Yun could hear that the White Deer Academy’s Dean was being very tactful with his words.
No one was as good as Chu Kuangren, not even Cao Yun.
It aroused the competitiveness in him.
“With the emergence of the Kunlun Secret Realm, I’ll bring along a few Heavenly Champions to look for Opportunities of Fortune. I hope I’ll be able to meet the Chief then,” said Cao Yun.
